We believe that healthy citizens, health care services, and public health services can together form the leading edge of an economic and social transformation toward an ecologically and socially sustainable society. We also recognize that lives in any community are interdependent and affected by choices and actions taken by individuals, communities, corporations and governments. Our vision foresees 1) communities that promote health and provide adequate nutrition, shelter, and economic security, 2) workplaces that are free from preventable hazards and offer creative and rewarding work, and 3) environments that encourage individual learning, social engagement, and the appreciation of our diverse cultural and natural heritages.
To achieve this vision we prepare skilled professionals to work with informed and empowered citizens to identify and carry out programs that prevent health and environmental hazards, treat illness and disability, build diverse and inclusive communities, develop safe and rewarding workplaces, and restore ecological integrity. This requires novel approaches to research and science, new linkages between traditional professions and services, and policies that can expand the ambitions and resources of the current health care, public health, and environmental protection systems.
The School represents a new phase in a continuing effort at the Lowell campus to become a model of innovation and interdisciplinary experimentation by pursuing a vision of regional sustainable development. It further reinforces the University’s long-standing commitment to community outreach, business assistance, and applied and practical solutions to current social and economic problems.
